How to find events using the Calendar

Click here to access the calendar on TeamUp. You can view it either in a browser, or in the TeamUp App on a mobile device.
Below is a summary of the basic use of the tool. For a full guide, see the TeamUp documentation

Searching/Filtering Events

You might want to see just events related to a particular topic or group or location. Simply enter text into the Filter box (where it says by keyword)

If you enter any word it will show all events with that word somewhere in them.
If you want to seach for a phrase, enclose it in quotes "dirty water" Otherwise it will find events with either word in it "Dirty" OR "Water" which is probably not what you wanted.
You can also search for icons in the events - some common icons are displayed below the filter box and you can copy these from there eg drumming 🥁

Event Summary

Hover your mouse pointer over an event and you will see a summary of the event information.

Event Details

Click on an event title and you will see all the event information Note particularly the Register Link box and the small icon to the bottom right of it. Click here and a new tab will open for you to contact the event coordinator or register for it.

Calendar Views

There are multiple ways of viewing the calendar information:
Usually the 4 Weeks (grid) view, or the Agenda (list) view are used.

Date Range

Depending on the view you have selected you will have the option to pick a display date range, you can always return to a view based on today by clicking the Today button

Sub-calendars

The calendar is divided into sub-calendars. View or hide these by clicking on the left-hand colour bars representing:

  • Actions - UK-wide / UK Significance: This needs to be agreed with Action Circle and have UK-wide locations and/or media impact. Eg. Dirty Water, The Big One.
  • Actions - National/Regional/Local: The majority of Actions will fall into this category. Coordinated by Local Groups, Communities or temporary Action teams. E.g. March on the Mine, Wales
  • Actions - Non-XRUK: These take the form of collaborative, allied organisation and/or Sister Movement actions. E.g. Fossil Free London, Housing Rebellion.
  • Key Dates - XR: E.g. Rebellion dates, Open Calls
  • Key Dates - External Eg. World Cup Final, Local/National Election
  • Talks, Training and workshops: events usually hosted online although some are face to face
  • Meetings - Local: Mostly social events mainly aimed at XR members in a town or community

Please note that secret events are not included in the public view.

Got something to add?

You can submit entries to the Movement Calendar here - or you go via your area’s calendar admin (it could be your regional Gardener or coordinator).

Fill in the New M&M Comms Request Form (as above) OR send details to your area’s Calendar Admin (this varies, could be a local coordinator, ‘Gardener’ or M&M rep)

Please make sure details are accurate to avoid publishing wrong info. It is the responsibility of the group/person submitting the form to make sure that any changes are updated in the calendar directly and quickly communicated to the email team if it relates to a UK action/event where the change of info might impact other teams:
